Active Playgrounds
We provide training to pupils and staff to engage children in fun structured playground based activities led through initiatives like Playground Squaddies, SLA Leaders and Playground Coaching.
Active Travel
We encourage children to walk or cycle to school through involvement in programmes like Park and Strides and Cycling proficiency. These programmes are dependent on priorities in School Travel Plans.
Afterschools Activity
We promote the engagement of children and volunteers in the participation and delivery of afterschools activities like TOP Play and TOP Sport Clubs as well as Think Dance or Sport specific clubs.
Education and Training
A huge amount of our work relies on trained school staff, parent volunteers and community volunteers so we provide comprehensive training to them through the Active Schools CPD Calendar which incorporates TOPs Training, Think Dance Traning, Playground Games Training, Speed, Agility and Quickness Training etc
Physical Activity
We develop Daily Physical Activity programmes that encourage children to be physically active everyday and these can be done in the classroom as well as traditional activity venues.
School Sport
In partnership with the Sports Development Team we provide opportunities for children to take part in sports competitions and festivals including Stirling Schools Cross Country, Soccer 7s Tournaments, Jump 2 It Basketball Festivals etc.
Sport Tasters
In partnership with the Sports Development Team and Local Clubs we offer children tasters in a variety of sports aimed at getting them engaged in clubs or classes in their community on a longer term basis.
Transition Programmes
We link with Nursery and Secondary Schools to engage children in activities that they will have the opportunity to take part in as they progress into Primary School and into Secondary School. These programmes usually run throughout the summer term.
